An Urban Approach To Climate Sensitive Design: Strategies for the Tropics de Rohinton Emmanuel

An Urban Approach To Climate Sensitive Design: Strategies for the Tropics

Autor Rohinton Emmanuel
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 ian 2005
The need to respond to the rapidly changing city climate is particularly urgent in the tropics where the urban transition is currently at its peak. While the need is clearly felt by the tropical urban dwellers, texts that provide an overview of the problem and indicate possible design solutions are rare. This comprehensive reference will be welcomed by student and practising architects as well as other built envronment professionals engaged with the environmental effects of building in worldwide warm and humid climates.

Notă biografică

Dr. Rohinton Emmanuel is a University teacher and researcher from Sri Lanka, with a Ph.D in urban climatology from the University of Michigan and has also taught in the US and Sweden. His core interests in studying the environmental changes brought about by urbanization in the warm, humid tropics. For nearly 13 years he has extensively researched climate changes in cities with the long-term goal of developing urban environmental monitoring indices that facilitate environment-sensitive urban design in the tropics. He has an extensive record of research and publications on building climatology and urban climate changes.

Descriere

Filling a crucial gap in the knowledge of climate-sensitive urban design in the tropics, this book presents the physical processes behind urban climate change and new ways of looking at urban design.
